Chapter 308: Reflection

Some people are happy and some are worried, after the first game, some people are happy, some people are sad, there is no need to wait until the next morning, the news has spread on the campus, a few particularly naughty students are so excited that they run to the open space outside the dormitory and shout, singing, learning wolf howling, turning on the grass, not only noisy other students are known, but also the teachers who manage the school building are so busy that they are angry, here just bombed a few sneaky tricksters back to the dormitory, Someone knocked on the bowl again, and it took nearly half an hour to finally stop.

"Alas, it's finally not noisy, I really don't understand, isn't it just a game of chess, as for it." Lying on the bed, Li Taibai complained, usually at this time, he had already fallen asleep, but tonight the strange screams from time to time outside made him unable to sleep, and after waiting for a long time, finally no one made any more trouble, he was relieved, turned over, and found the most comfortable position to lie down.

"Hmph, villains are ambitious, they are all villains!" On the other bed, Lin Zicong couldn't sleep even more tossed and turned, and when he heard Li Taibai's complaints, he also said hatefully.

"Villain? No, they're all older than us, right? Li Taibai thought about it and asked puzzled-villain, doesn't it mean that you are young or small? There seems to be no one who has just entered the school and surpassed both aspects.

"I'm dizzy, is that how the 'villain' explains it?" Lin Zicong shouted helplessly, there are not many people like him who have the conditions to ask a tutor for preschool education when he is very young, although he is not the kind of person who is extremely smart or diligent and inquisitive, but the water is wet, he has taught and learned, and there will always be something left in his mind.

"Uh, what do you mean by 'villain'?" Li Taibai asked curiously.

"A villain is a person of low moral character, regardless of age. If you meet this criterion, an adult can also be a villain. Lin Zicong explained.

"You mean those people are of low character?" Li Taibai asked after thinking about it.

"Of course. If you don't sleep at night and make noise to others, how high can this character be? Every day, don't you say? Lin Zicong replied, and then asked Tan Xiaotian on the other bed, but Tan Xiaotian did not respond.

"Tiantian, why don't you speak? Aren't you asleep? Lin Zicong said strangely, and unwillingly stretched out his foot and kicked the head of Tan Xiaotian's bed.

"Ah, what's the matter?" There was a reaction this time, but listening to the voice, Tan Xiaotian didn't look like he had been woken up from a dream.

"Hey. The two of us chatted for a long time, and you didn't listen to a word, did you? Lin Zicong was angry, sat up from the bed and asked angrily.

"Yes, every day, you haven't fallen asleep, what are you thinking?" Li Taibai also asked curiously.

"I'm thinking about the chess game just now." Tan Xiaotian replied.

"Well, every day, I don't even want to think about it anymore, why do you still want to do that. Sleep well and refresh yourself. Tomorrow night we'll have another battle with that 'big gray wolf'. Lin Zicong said.

"Huh? You really didn't think about it at all? This time it was Tan Xiaotian's turn to be surprised - it had been less than two hours since he lost the chess, and Lin Zicong was able to recover from his depression as usual, such a strong psychological adjustment ability is really enviable.

"It's all over. Why do I still want it, do I keep thinking that the result can be changed, and the loss becomes a win? Lin Zicong replied - how could he, a pampered boy like him, who was born in a wealthy family, really care about the outcome of a game of chess. And the loss of the freshmen who have just entered the school to the seniors who entered the school two years earlier is actually not an unacceptable failure, it is normal, so in addition to being depressed for a while soon after the game. Soon he also put it behind him, the so-called sky fell down and there was a tall person on top, in the past, there were housekeepers and subordinates who got into trouble or did anything wrong, will this matter be more serious than those today?

"But the result can't be changed, it doesn't mean that there is no need to reflect, Teacher Yuan said, 'A gentleman is knowledgeable and self-sufficient, then he knows and does nothing.' Even the sages and sages also need to conduct self-reflection every day, so that they can know and understand that they will no longer do wrong things, Mr. Zhao also said, no matter whether a game of chess wins or loses, as long as it is played seriously, there will always be something that needs to be reflected, unless the strength of the two sides of the game is too different, from the beginning to the end, there is no mistake in the middle, there is no repetition of the situation is rare, and even if it is the losing side, there may not be no beautiful moves in the chess game, carefully experienced, think carefully, there will always be gains. Tan Xiaotian retorted.

"Wow, every day, you're really knowledgeable." Li Taibai's sincere admiration was aroused by his words, he is still stumbling by memorizing the three-character scripture now, and people like Tan Xiaotian can still quote the articles of his predecessors and tell the meaning, but I don't know how many years of school he will have to do it.

"Hey, it's average." Tan Xiaotian was embarrassed and modest.

"Teacher Zhao? You mean Mr. Zhao? Why didn't he say that to me? "Who Teacher Yuan is Lin Zicong doesn't know, but Teacher Zhao is obviously Zhao Yanwu, who is also a newly recruited disciple, but he has never received such guidance and teaching, Lin Zicong can't help but feel a little surprised.

"That's what he told me when I was staying at Mr. Zhao's house before school started, where are you listening." Tan Xiaotian replied.

"I see, well, it sounds pretty reasonable. It turned out that the teacher invited at home also said something similar, let me play more famous chess games, but I think it is too troublesome to play scores, those more than 100 chess games are good to say, it doesn't take much time, but some chess games have two or three hundred hands at every turn, and when you play to the end, you have to find a move for a long time, and you are dazzled. Knowing that there was a reason for the incident, Zhao Yanwu didn't deliberately not tell himself, Lin Zicong felt a little more comfortable, so he complained with emotion.

"Yes, officials are very troublesome, but Mr. Zhao also said that officials are the basic skills of chess, and most of the winners and losers are decided in the official stage, and if the officials are not serious, it is easy to be overturned." Tan Xiaotian said.

"That's what I said, but the official is really boring, and it's too tiring to pick at a glance. Anyway, I like to kill the dragon in the middle game, lose if you lose, win if you win, and have a good time whether you win or lose. Lin Zicong said.

"It's a pleasure to be like that, but when you meet an opponent like Liao Xiaohui, won't you lose very badly?" Tan Xiaotian asked rhetorically. (To be continued......)
